The CENSUS HISTORY PROJECT focuses on the exploration, extraction, and analysis of U.S. Census data for further research purposes. Our users group takes on a critical historical approach to understanding population-level data on the United States, the methods used to gather the data, and the measures applied to explore, extract, and analyze the data.
